Business Week Launches Quarterly On Electronic Business

Business Week Magazine has launched Business Week e.biz,
a quarterly
report on electronic business, in its March 22 issue.
For the debut issue, the Business Week team interviewed
experts on the front lines of E-business.
Business Week has also launched a new
website, ebiz.businessweek.com, which is updated
daily, with extra stories, columnists, data, and insights.

"Electronic business is uncharted territory, so expect
trip-ups as well as triumphs," says Kathy Rebello, managing
editor of Business Week e.biz and the magazine's senior editor
in charge of information technology coverage. "Business Week
e.biz quarterly will deal with the big issues and trends --
how to profit, how to avoid the pitfalls, and who the people
are behind it. We'll always keep the broad perspective, but
future issues will drill down into how specific parts of
companies can remake themselves."

As the first non-techie magazine to do a cover story on the
Internet (1994), Business Week has had an early start in
covering the phenomenon, and continued to publish stories
regularly on how the technology behind the Internet was
linking companies and bringing them closer to their customers.
The coverage grew into a series of special reports on electronic
commerce. Two special reports in 1998 were capped with an
additional 30-page package, "Doing Business in the Internet Age."
